he is a phenomenon and brilliant at that, we are so lucky to have someone so smart. The one good policy of the last useless administration was to set upon free education all be it after this brilliant young man could have benefitted from but the good thing about free education is it will offer opportunity to brilliant students like this you man whom otherwise would have amounted to nothing in life in villages across the country however, now we have these prodigies how can Ghana benefit from their brilliance. the reality for this young man is to reach his true potential, he needs to go outside, Ghana unfortunately cannot extract from him what his potential can offer. Think of all the others that are entering the free education system today whom are as brilliant as this young man that we as a country cannot leverage. I pray over time we get there as a country to be able to take advantage of our brilliant children whom are literally left to beg. God bless my country Ghana.....

During Tsikatas time, you complete form 4 then upper 6th form, then college or through university, then law school. So Tsikata still valid. This Danquah guy seem like 26 years. Moreover basic school completed at 12 looked like he was in class 1 by age 3 whilst still learning to talk. Primary school and JSS completed by 12 and SSS completed by 15 looked like some age undercut happened here. Most Ghanaians are not truthful to themselves.

Naa is that what comes to mind? Is life in Ghana all about political or public office? You come from a country where a few inches rain flood the cities. Engineering and science means nothing. Why are you thrilled when you go to the advanced countries? It is because science and engineering matters. The young man has done so well. Has achieved a lot. But he can be started with a reputable chambers for him to get a good pupilage.

Perfect contribution. The youngman shd be attached to a reputable Chambers to under study them.For now he's too raw and unexperienced to go on his own.That is what's done in the developed world.

We shd learn to appreciate others effort. Check the schools the youngman attended b4 entering UCC, then compare it with that of Tsatsu who attended a Preparatory school and continued at Mfantsipim in those days.

Congratulations, young man. You have made your parents, and Ghana, so proud of you. Meanwhile, if Tsatsu Tsikata and Nana Addo Danquah Akuffo Addo were both called to the Bar in 1975, who are those jackasses who continue to shamelessly claim that NADAA is not a lawyer? Such types of people are uneducated ignoramuses. NADAA studied Law in one of the four famous Inns of Court in London, and these institutions are far better than all the Law Schools in Ghana combined.

Thousands of this so called lawyers are called in to the bar every year and if i may ask what benefit thus this cheap title got to do with Ghana's numerous problems like the road networks, floods, good drinking water, aviation industry, Marine engineering, environment etc etc, the annoying thing is that 99 percent of this so called lawyers study only one subject-Criminal law, just because they want to enter politics and loot the taxe payers money

The challenge of some people’s fixation with Nana Addo’s legal credentials is how to bring him down to the rather humble levels of some non-achievers.
